Yep, Parental Burnout is a thing. It's this thing where you have a baby in one arm, a cigarette in the other, while on a work zoom call, doing dishes with three fingers, while putting on lipstick for the zoom call you are currently on. Your husband is there, he is the one making sure the internet connection is working and trying to get baby to take your boob for its milk, but cette baby keeps screaming because it wants mom to stop smoking, or at least that is why mom thinks the baby is screaming because she knows she should quit smoking but let's be honest...she is so stressed out and can't even think about stopping. Does this make sense? Who knows, because I am burned out and don't even know if my brain is a mess or if I am rocking it today. So, in a nutshell, this week's episode we talk about parental burnout. What it is, the symptoms, and why does it even exist.
